The synthesis, structure elucidation, and spectroscopic measurements of a myriad of new, f-
element borates has revealed the unusual effects that this electron-rich oxoanion has on the …

We report the synthesis and characterization of the macrocyclic californium derivative Na [Cf
(H2O)(DOTA)](DOTA= 1, 4, 7, 10-tetraazacyclododecane-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraacetate), 1-Cf …

Recent reports have suggested the late actinides participate in more covalent interactions
than the earlier actinides, yet the origin of this shift in chemistry is not understood. This report …

INTRODUCTION Developing the chemistry of late actinides is hindered by the lack of
availability of isotopes, the need for specialized research facilities, and the nuclear instability …

Characterizing how actinide properties change across the f-element series is critical for
improving predictive capabilities and solving many nuclear problems facing our society …

An isostructural family of f-element compounds (Ce, Nd, Sm, Gd; Am, Bk, Cf) of the redox-
active dioxophenoxazine ligand (DOPOq; DOPO= 2, 4, 6, 8-tetra-tert-butyl-1-oxo-1 H …

A comprehensive ab initio study of periodic actinide–ligand bonding trends for trivalent
actinides is performed. Relativistic density functional theory (DFT) and complete active …

Understanding the effects of pressure on actinide compounds is an integral part of safe
nuclear waste storage in deep geologic repositories and provides a means of systematically …

In this study, the synthesis, characterization, and pressure response of a 1D californium
